Comments:

This was my first Canada Winter contest.  I intended to make a make a serious
effort, but had some other commitments delay the start by 2 hours.  I left the
station set up as M/M and changed bands by changing stations.  I started on 20M
with one 3 th6 stack at JA and the other one toward the SE.  The activity was
poor and very few JAs called so went to 40M where the activity was good and
made 132 Qs before going to 80M.  I spent the rest of Friday night alternating
between low bands.  I had to QRT at 10PM local for a late dinner and help my
wife with xmas cards.  Didn't get back on until 10AM Saturday and found 10M
active but hard copy on lots on weak low power stations.  So I finished the
contest on 15M and 20M.  I had a few EU on 40M and 20M and extremely few JAs
and SAs on all bands.  95% of my Qs were from NA.  A lot different from the
CQWW contests.  I was very concerned that N1MM was not scoring properly and
found I had misinterperted the rules after I went QRT Friday night.  Thats one
reason I quite early Friday.  I adveraged 91 Qs per hour for the whole contest
and had some 200/hr rates, not bad considering the serial number was included
in the exchange.  I enjoyed this Canada Winter contest and it will not be my
last one.  Biggest mistake was starting late Saturday.  Biggest supprise was an
EA QRP station called me on 15M.

73, Duane VE7UF
